Beware of scammers.

Hi Yellow dog,

First let me say I'm no expert on the R B Pistols. However in my 50 years of collecting Remington's, I have only seen the hooked trigger guard on Belgium made Rolling Blocks. The fact that it isn't serial numbered to the upper tang leads me to believe that Remington didn't make it ...

Dan,

This is a friendly correction to your comments.
The canes did have the breach which was exposed by unscrewing the upper handle shaft allowing the cartridge to be inserted.
The Remington ferrule is steel and most of them were serial numbered. They were also marked on the barrel j st below the ...

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the passing of Richard (Dick) Littlefield. on July 27th. Anyone who attends national gun shows must have at least known of him. We have lost not only a gentleman, but someone who was always willing to share his vast knowledge, of not just Remingtons but antique ...

Researcher,

Thanks for explaining the difference between the old shell sizes and new. Would these all be black powder loads?
Do we know when "B" brass was phased out? Just curious not really a shotgun guy.

Thanks for sharing your extensive knowledge.

Marlinman,
I can't argue with facts. However, Flayderman's states, for Model #1 and #2 Rolling Block Shotguns ( 5E-094 & 5E-094.5) shells could interchange, 16ga. brass and 20ga. paper. I assumed the diameter of the 16ga.brass was the same as 20ga paper.
My rollers are both 12ga. so can't check. We ...

Some people might not be aware that early single barrel Remington shot guns would shoot a 16ga. brass shell or a 20ga paper shell.
There were a couple of articles on single barrel shotguns in last years RSA Journals. Yours looks like it would be a good shooter.

I'm surprised there aren't any comments on this .I'm no expert on these, but I did collect the light weights and have never seen a conversion lkike this. I'm guessing that this is an experimental one or two example. Not being a gunsmith, I don't know how difficult it would be to
make the conversion ...

Hi John,

I would post photos of my 180th Anniversary Model 7600, but I'm technically challenged. My friend who took photos for me, unfortunately
has passed away. However, If you have been a member of RSA for some years, there is an article on the 180th. set in the 2nd. quarter 2017 RSA Journal ...

Hello John,

I have both a M-7600 and 7400 engraved and with gold inlays. They are part of a 5 arm set made for Remington's 180th Anniversary.
The other 3 are Models 870, 11-87, and 700. I don't recall the exact number produced, but believe it was 30 or 40 sets.
There was an article in a past RSA ...

If they are parkerised, they were arsenal refinished. There is a good possibility that the frames and slide might not match.
I have a Rem-UMC slide on a Colt frame, and consider it period correct. I don't have the book handy, but I don't believe Remington
made as many as 200,000 1911's I'm sure one ...

I can't say if this is original or not. However, it was reproduced in 1982. Since the bottom appears to be trimmed, when framed,
I suspect it is a repro.

Steve,
I found your presentation very interesting. I know the Cadet and #7 Rolling Blocks were based on the 1871 Army R. B. pistols.
I didn't realize the #2 was also based on that frame. I also didn't know of the different variations. Now I'll have to dig out my
#2 in 32 RF smooth bore and see just ...

John, I believe Remington peep sites from the 30's would be the same. My 341-P uses an extra peep aperture as a rear adjusting screw.
If original the peep from your site should screw into the hole. However, if there was a slotted screw in there the threads might be crossed.
If original, finding a ...
